SPIRIT OF THE MARATHON 2 - UPDATE

No summer holidays for the production team of "Spirit of the Marathon 2 - La Maratona di Roma", the feature-length documentary shot at the last Rome Marathon. Director Jon Dunham and producers Megan Williams and Gwendolen Twist are keeping filming and working on the movie, due to come out in March 2013.

The crew is currently filming with Julie Weiss, one of the movie's main characters/runners in Santa Monica, California right now. Later this week they will be traveling to New Jersey, New York and Massachusetts to film with Clifford Scott and American running icons: Bill Rodgers, Roger Robinson and Kathrine Switzer. From the east coast of the United States, Jon Dunham will be returning to Rome for one week to do more filming with the Italian characters, and eventually traveling to Ukraine to film with Vasyl Matviychuck, who will be getting married.

Meanwhile, producers announced that award winning composer Jeff Beal, who scored the first "Spirit of the Marathon" as well as the HBO series "Rome" will also be creating the soundtrack for "Spirit of the Marathon II".
